Unfortunately for those expecting yuletide and merriment, Santa (voiced by Adam Pally, who plays Wade Whipple across the first two Sonic movies and the Knuckles series) has hurt his ankle and it's up to Team Sonic to save the day.

The Sonic movie universe is all about team-ups. We've already seen Sonic (Ben Schwartz) and Tails (Colleen O'Shaughnessey) battle Jim Carrey's Robotnik in Sonic 2, while Idris Elba's Knuckles fired up the Flames of Disaster with Wade Whipple (Adam Pally) in this year's Knuckles TV spin-off.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 had its official premiere in London yesterday0. While full reviews won’t be out until closer to the movie’s December 20 launch, early impressions are trickling out on social media from people who attended early screenings.

Join IGN's Mark Medina and his nephew Jaxon as they check out the new trailer for Sonic The Hedgehog 3. Sonic (Ben Schwartz), Tails (Colleen O'Shaughnessey), Knuckles (Idris Elba), and Dr. Robotnik (Jim Carrey) are back for their biggest adventure yet,

The first reactions to Sonic the Hedgehog 3 are in, and it sounds like the third entry in the series ups the ante for the blue blur in a major way. Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is directed by Jeff Fowler and stars Ben Schwartz as the titular hedgehog.
